Now, Mr. Editor, as tho abovo charges implicate ma to somo extent, and aa I am acquainted with the entire transaction, i therefore denounce every charge and accusation in that direction to be an infamous lie, as base n? bell itself. 1 bought overy pieco and parcel of the material myself, without the slightest knowledge of Mr. Sheppurd as to where or rrum wlioia u wm j unimaeu, anil when 1 completed the werk La paid me every cent due ine, and n? to the drinking and gambling with ex-Governor HbepparJ, 1 have never drnnk a drop of whiskey with him, neither hns he ever drank any in my presence.

Some six years ago lie told Mr. W. A. Ancrum that lie made charges against the democratic Kioto administration because ha wnntod to ' attract attention." About the fame time he told N. 0. Uoozale* that lie was "no tlireo for a quarter niau," and that he only advocated "retrenchment and reform" because if ho did not do so "these clodhoppers would not go out to hear him." Now comes Editor Anil of tho Newberry Herald and Sacs and testifies that two and a half years ago he told him that "ho had to write [charges] as ho did in order to attract tbo attention und get tho ear of the people." Proofs multiply, wo say, that B, It. Tillman his p'ayed a "confidence game" with tho people. Many men still persist in being deluded by him, but many others, thank Heaven, are amenable to reason, and avlien they find they havo been fooled will honestly admit their mistake and help to retire the man who obtained their support upon false pretences.
